Why do I have different output when running the workflow in desktop or using th interface?

Hello,

 

I built a alteryx workflow in which the output will be multiple excel files, splitted from a single input file. 

 

When I run this on the desktop, the outcome is just like I wanted.

 

However, when I add the interface tool "Folder", the output file will comeback as only one with several sheets. Do you think it might be something with the setup of the Action tool?

 

I am a new user with the interface tools. 

 

Thank you in advance.

Hello @messi007 

 

Is it possible to attach your workflow as a picture? I don't have the latest version of Alteryx, so I can't open your file.
